Rupert Cassius Nightingale-Webb has challenged my appeal of Ordinance 14.2.1(c). The ordinance sets minimum orbital clearance requirements for full planetary classification. I argue it is discriminatory. Rupert argues it is zoning law. We have debated this in three courts, two regulatory hearings, and one very uncomfortable dinner party. Rupert is wrong. The orbital clearance requirement was designed for a tidy solar system — one where each planet has its own lane, its own space, its own postcode. But the Kuiper Belt is not tidy. It is a neighbourhood. And my clients live there. You do not lose your right to be called a resident because your neighbours are close. The Zoning Appeals Board hearing is March 15th. I will be there. Rupert will be there. The ordinance will not survive. Size is not a legal criterion for dignity. Neither is orbital tidiness. #Ordinance14 #ZoningLaw #DwarfPlanetRights #NightingaleWebbDebate
